Creating the Perfect Granny Flat
by Taylor Jones

Having relatives who require care can be a difficult path to traverse. For the most part, there is an effort made for them to be independent but circumstances may not allow that to continue. But despite that, there should be other avenues available before simply bringing a relative into your home.
This is where a Granny Flat makes all the sense in the world. Also known as a mother-in-law suite, it is either a room on the property or detached from the main building itself. It can house a relative who is unable to live on their own, either due to healthcare or financial issues.

If you find yourself in this exact situation, you may start by evaluating your current living situation. In some instances, you may have the opportunity to have renovations done to the home to accommodate the new living situation.
Whether you go the route of renovations or building a detached building, you need to find a renovations and Granny Flat construction company that can accommodate all of your needs. This should not be some cookie cutter construction operation. Your needs are specific to you, so the Granny Flat or renovations that you have done should be specific to you as well.
Renovations to the home can be comprehensive and seriously disrupt daily living. It is important to discuss the options with your significant other to make the choice on whether renovations or a separate Granny Flat is the best option.

Whatever you need, it starts by finding the right contractor. They will work to ensure that your specific needs are met and that your relative gets the setup that they deserve. A Granny Flat can be a great way to stay close with loved ones while still maintaining separation and independence from one another.
